Like all bullies, doubtless unable to obtain

1:37

respect in any other way, you

1:39

sought to intimidate and frighten Sebastian,

1:42

who was weaker than you. You're welcome.

1:52

In August 2021, detectives in Huddersfield, United Kingdom,

1:56

were investigating a case where a teenage boy

1:59

reportedly fell

1:59

unconscious while in the bathtub.

2:02

As they initiated their inquiry within the family

2:05

residence, a peculiar discovery

2:07

awaited them. Surveillance

2:10

cameras strategically placed in every

2:12

corner of the house. The The

2:25

Sebastian Kalinowski entered the world

2:28

in Poland on the 16th of July 2006. His mother,

2:30

Agnieszka Kalinowski,

2:34

had parted ways with his father, Jaksik

2:36

Kalinowski, and she had found companionship

2:38

with a man named Andrzej Latajewski.

2:41

Eventually Kalinowski

2:43

and Latajewski relocated to the United

2:46

Kingdom. In October of 2020, Sebastian

2:49

joined them, following his father's decision

2:52

to relinquish care for him. His

2:54

father had struggled to care for him and it was

2:56

believed that his son would have a better life with

2:59

better opportunities over in the United Kingdom

3:02

with his mother. The

3:04

family settled in Leeds Road, Huddersfield,

3:07

conveniently close to Joberger, where

3:09

both Kalinowski and Latajewski

3:12

were employed. The

3:14

couple had met a decade earlier when

3:16

Latajewski visited Poland to see

3:18

his son, who had been born in 2008.

3:23

In Huddersfield, Sebastian became a student

3:25

at North Huddersfield Trust School in

3:27

Fartorn. Described as

3:29

a polite and well-behaved young boy, he was

3:32

often reserved and shy. Teachers

3:35

noted his cooperative and caring nature,

3:38

deeming him a model student. His

3:41

size was notably smaller than his peers

3:43

and at the age of 15 he weighed

3:45

a mere seven and a half stone. Within

3:49

the school environment, Sebastian's confidence

3:51

began to grow and he exhibited

3:53

a keen enthusiasm for learning, particularly

3:56

during quizzes, the task of his

3:59

knowledge across the world. various subjects.

4:02

As the principal at the school recalled, he

4:04

embodied what our school stands for in

4:06

demonstrating a positive attitude

4:08

to school, treating others with respect

4:11

and showing a determination to make the most

4:13

of his education. To

4:16

communicate with his classmates, Sebastian employed

4:19

Google Translate, even

4:21

attempting to teach some of them Polish. The

4:25

school's pastoral manager shared, his

4:27

attitude to learning was always spot

4:30

on. He always smiled. He

4:32

was a shy, quiet boy, but he had a firm personality.

4:37

Sebastian's growth extended beyond the classroom, and

4:40

after finishing his chores at home, he eagerly

4:42

engaged in football

4:43

outside, a sport that he loved.

4:46

He always tried to mingle with the other children and

4:49

teenagers in the neighbourhood, despite

4:51

the language barrier. What

4:53

neighbour fondly recalled, he was

4:55

a good little footballer who had practiced

4:58

flicking it over his head. Sebastian

5:01

had dreams of one day representing

5:03

Poland in football. On 13

5:12

August 2021, Andrei Ladyszewski

5:16

called the emergency services to their home,

5:18

reporting that he had discovered Sebastian

5:21

in the bathtub, with his head submerged

5:24

and unconscious. During

5:26

the 999 call, he could be heard urgently pleading, Come

5:29

on, boy, come on, boy, please Sebastian,

5:32

come on, please Sebastian. With

5:35

Sirens blazing, paramedics rushed to

5:37

the family

5:37

home.

5:39

Responding swiftly to the scene, paramedics

5:41

arrived with Sirens blazing, and they

5:43

were guided inside by Kalinowska and

5:46

Ladyszewski.

5:48

They were directed upstairs to Sebastian's bedroom,

5:51

but they found him wet and sprawled out on a duvet

5:53

that rested on the floor. Sebastian

5:56

was promptly transported to the hospital, where it was reported

5:59

that he had discovered Sebastian in the bathtub. he had tragically died.

6:01

Upon his arrival at the medical

6:03

examiner's office, it became evident

6:06

that Sebastian had suffered prolonged abuse.

6:09

An autopsy revealed the extent of his injuries.

6:13

He had endured 23 separate rib

6:15

fractures. Among

6:17

these, five were between two and four days

6:19

old, one between four and eight days

6:21

old, 16 ranged from one

6:24

to two weeks old, and one was estimated

6:26

to be between five and 12 weeks old.

6:29

Additionally, Sebastian had a substantial blood

6:31

clot in his liver, along with bruises

6:34

on various parts of his body, including

6:36

his forehead, jaw, abdomen,

6:39

arms and legs. His

6:41

heart muscles were damaged, and there

6:43

was evidence of a muscle shearing injury

6:45

to his left thigh. There were

6:47

also a number of linear scabs across his lower

6:50

back and buttocks, which were the results

6:52

of wounds that had been so deep that

6:54

the fat had been stripped onto the muscle.

6:57

Despite the severity of these injuries, it was determined

6:59

that Sebastian's cause of death was

7:02

linked to infection that developed around

7:04

the rib fractures. This

7:06

infection then developed into overwhelming sepsis

7:09

and collapse. Dr.

7:12

Michael Parsons, a home pathologist,

7:14

recollected, and explained. While

7:16

I was examining Sebastian's back, I

7:18

found pockets of pus up to two

7:21

centimeters across which just poured out

7:23

as I was examining it. An obcess

7:26

is a collection of pus, bacterial invasion

7:28

of an organ or tissue. Around

7:31

the outside of it, sometimes you get a wall forming

7:33

and intense inflammation. The

7:36

pathologist further noted that in the days

7:38

preceding Sebastian's death, he

7:41

would have exhibited noticeable signs of distress,

7:44

including difficulty in breathing, extreme

7:46

weakness, and likely an inability

7:48

to move. This condition

7:51

would have been discernible to anybody who interacted

7:53

with him. According to the pathologist,

7:56

Sebastian had been dead for up to two hours

7:58

before paramedics were called.

7:59

called.

8:02

Following the conclusion of the autopsy, an investigation

8:05

into the possibility of murder was

8:07

initiated.

8:09

With just two individuals in direct proximity

8:12

to Sebastian, his mother, Agnieszka

8:14

Kalinowski and her boyfriend,

8:17

Andrei Ladaczewski, both were promptly

8:19

taken into custody for questioning. Detective

8:23

Tony Nicholson announced to the public, we

8:25

are continuing to develop a number of inquiries

8:28

into the death of Sebastian, and

8:30

this is very much a murder investigation.

8:32

Subsequent to the arrest of Kalinowski

8:35

and Ladaczewski, the two were subjected

8:37

to separate interrogations in

8:40

order to establish more information.

8:43

Both individuals vehemently denied any

8:45

involvement in Sebastian's untimely

8:48

death. Ladaczewski conveyed

8:50

to the detectives that except

8:52

for the occasional spanking on his bottom,

8:54

he had never inflicted harm

8:57

upon Sebastian. A chilling

9:00

lack of empathy was evident as

9:02

he chuckled while making this statement.

9:06

He asserted that the last time he had seen Sebastian

9:09

was the day before the emergency called

9:11

the paramedics. According

9:13

to Ladaczewski on the subsequent morning,

9:15

he became aware that Sebastian had entered the bathroom

9:18

for a bath. He claimed that approximately 40

9:20

minutes later, he heard Kalinowski

9:23

screaming from the bathroom. Rushing

9:26

to the scene, he described finding a naked

9:28

and unconscious Sebastian submerged

9:31

in the water. Ladaczewski

9:34

claimed he struggled to lift Sebastian out

9:36

of the bath due to his wet and

9:38

slippery condition. He suggested

9:40

that he may have inadvertently caused a head

9:42

injury in the process, although

9:44

this explanation didn't align with the extensive

9:47

injuries that Sebastian had suffered.

9:50

After removing Sebastian from the bath, he

9:53

stated that he placed him on a duvet in the landing

9:55

and began CPR. He

9:58

recounted hearing water emanating from Sebastian's bed. Sebastian

10:00

during his resuscitation attempts. During

10:04

the course of the interrogation, Ladachovsky

10:06

endeavored to account for the remaining injuries

10:09

Sebastian had

10:09

sustained.

10:11

He asserted that a couple of weeks earlier, Sebastian

10:14

had been hit by a friend's father and

10:16

had fallen from a tree shortly before his

10:18

death. He

10:21

even suggested the possibility that Sebastian

10:23

may have incurred these injuries while sneaking out

10:25

of the home. Kalinowska,

10:28

in her interrogation, corroborated

10:30

Ladachovsky's version of events.

10:34

She recounted that on the morning in question she was

10:36

downstairs with Sebastian. When

10:39

he informed her he was going to take a bath. Concerned

10:42

by his prolonged absence, she went to check on him

10:45

and said she discovered him naked

10:47

and submerged in the bathtub. She

10:50

maintained that she screamed for Ladachovsky

10:53

and that both of them initiated life-saving

10:55

efforts. The detectives probed

10:57

Kalinowska into Ladachovsky's

11:00

temperament. She acknowledged

11:02

that he was occasionally moody and she

11:04

attributed this to his steroid use. She

11:08

described Sebastian as being a bit naughty

11:10

and occasionally spoutful. She

11:13

admitted that she witnessed Ladachovsky hit Sebastian

11:16

on several occasions but

11:18

she maintained it was months ago. Although

11:21

she professed ignorance on how Sebastian

11:23

had sustained the rib fractures, she

11:26

ultimately denied causing them. Nevertheless

11:30

the fatal injuries remained undeniable.

11:33

Pressed for further insights Kalinowska suggested

11:36

that Ladachovsky might have

11:38

inflicted the rib fractures as

11:41

it certainly was not her doing. The

11:44

news of Sebastian's murder reverberated

11:46

through the headlines, leaving neighbors

11:49

in the vicinity astonished. Among

11:51

memories of seeing Sebastian engaged in

11:54

football games, some neighbors

11:56

also recalled glimpses of him performing

11:58

various tasks in the film. chores in the garden.

12:01

One neighbour remarked,

12:04

I used to say to my mum, he looked really

12:06

lonely when I saw him out in the

12:08

garden. Hints of something amiss

12:11

within the family's home had not escaped the

12:13

notice of some residents. Instances

12:17

of Ladachowski raising his voice at

12:19

both Sebastian and his mother were reported,

12:22

casting a shadow on their interactions.

12:26

The presence indicated that Sebastian was at

12:28

times treated like a gopher

12:29

or lap dog.

12:32

While when Sebastian had first arrived in the United

12:34

Kingdom, he could be seen playing football

12:37

outside, his presence became

12:39

more rare,

12:40

before he stopped ever being seen

12:42

by the neighbours. It

12:45

was apparent that a veiled reality existed

12:47

behind those closed doors, prompting

12:50

detectives to delve into the underlying

12:53

truth. The

12:55

skilled staff painted a picture of

12:57

a seemingly sad but resilient

12:59

Sebastian. Despite

13:02

a sad demeanor, he always offered a smile

13:04

to those he encountered. A

13:06

revealing incident had occurred during Easter

13:09

of 2021 when Ladachowski approached the skilled gates

13:13

in an agitated state. Abruptly,

13:16

he shouted that Sebastian was a liar and instructed

13:20

everybody to ignore him. This

13:22

incident was startling in its suddenness

13:25

and it prompted the staff to intervene. They

13:28

engaged Ladachowski, affirming

13:30

that Sebastian was a kind, intelligent

13:32

and expressive boy. The

13:35

outburst was completely random and

13:37

staff at the school had no clue what it was

13:39

in relation to. This

13:42

episode offered the first glimpse at a real

13:45

insight into the police dynamics.

13:48

Attempts were made to reach Sebastian regarding his outburst

13:52

and a staff member recollected her interaction.

13:56

He wouldn't talk about it at all, he

13:58

wouldn't give eye contact, and I am asked

14:00

if he was okay. He always kept

14:02

his eyes on and his head on, so

14:05

I put my hand under his chin so I could get

14:07

eye contact. I asked

14:09

if he was okay and if he felt safe

14:12

and he replied, I'm fine

14:14

Miss. Detectives

14:17

were beginning to build a picture of Sebastian's

14:19

sad life, but nothing could

14:22

prepare them for what they would eventually uncover.

14:28

During the investigation, detectives

14:30

returned to the crime scene at the family's

14:32

home. They noticed something

14:35

of interest. There were CCTV

14:37

cameras throughout the home, including

14:40

Sebastian's bedroom. They

14:43

found a hard drive for the CCTV cameras

14:45

strategically hidden in the table in

14:47

the living room. When

14:49

detectives looked through the footage that was recorded,

14:53

they revealed exactly what had happened to

14:55

Sebastian. From

14:57

January of 2021 until Sebastian's death,

15:01

he was subjected to horrendous abuse.

15:05

On January 25, Kalinowski documented

15:08

an instance where Lada Czefsky

15:10

assaulted Sebastian on her mobile

15:12

phone. The scene captured Sebastian

15:15

seated on a large beige chair, with

15:17

the television providing a backdrop. Holding

15:21

a notepad and pen, he engaged

15:23

in conversation with Lada Czefsky.

15:27

The encounter revolved around Lada Czefsky's

15:29

inquiry about whether Sebastian had

15:32

used his torch to enter the home's

15:34

basement. Throughout

15:36

the interaction, Lada Czefsky resorted

15:39

to using derogatory language toward

15:41

Sebastian, and he struck

15:43

him multiple times with a spindle.

15:45

The recording depicted

15:47

Sebastian in tears, referring to his

15:50

stepfather as Mr. Andre.

15:52

Amid the crying, Sebastian

15:54

implored that he no longer wished to be subjected

15:57

to the physical abuse. However,

16:00

Latachowski responded with scorn,

16:03

declaring, You shouldn't have lied

16:05

about it. Now you're fucking screwed.

16:07

I will not let you in my house. Sebastian

16:11

defended himself, stating that he hadn't

16:13

entered the left door, which led to the

16:16

basement. Latachowski

16:19

persisted in asserting that Sebastian had indeed

16:21

entered the basement, callously

16:23

belittling him. Stop pretending

16:26

you're crying. You have no feelings,

16:28

you little whore. He proceeded

16:30

to pressure Sebastian to confess to

16:32

entering the bedroom, threatening

16:35

to torture him until he admitted it. The

16:38

distressing footage unveiled an alarming

16:41

truth. Sebastian

16:43

was subjected to physical abuse and torment,

16:46

merely for accessing a room

16:48

within the house. This

16:50

was only the beginning of the end for Sebastian,

16:53

and the abuse was quickly ramped

16:55

up for perceived wrongdoings. Judy

17:59

April in the summer months, Sebastian's attendance

18:02

at school became irregular. His

18:04

mother provided various

18:06

pretexts ranging from toothache

18:09

to fever and even attributing his absence

18:11

to the COVID-19 pandemic.

18:14

The reality however is

18:16

that he was being subjected to brutal beatings

18:18

and the couple didn't want the school

18:21

to find out. Beyond

18:23

keeping him away from school, Sebastian was systematically

18:26

excluded from family gatherings and

18:28

outings, leaving him absent

18:30

from family trips. Whenever

18:33

inquired about his absence, relatives

18:35

were told that he was enduring punishment throughout

18:37

the holiday period. In

18:40

addition to physical violence, Sebastian was subjected

18:43

to degrading exercise regiments. He

18:46

was compelled to perform humiliating tasks

18:49

such as 250 squats and 50 press-ups, all

18:53

under the watchful eyes of Colinowska

18:55

and Ladachowski. On July 1st,

18:57

a video clip retrieved from CCTV

19:00

cameras captured Ladachowski strike

19:02

Sebastian's buttocks with a wooden

19:04

slot from the bed. The

19:06

aggression escalated as he proceeded to punch

19:08

Sebastian multiple times, propelling

19:11

him across the sofa and eventually

19:13

stomping on his head. Ladachowski

19:17

was a bodybuilder and user of steroids

19:20

and he made Sebastian refer to him as Mr

19:23

or Sir.

19:25

In the footage his appearance and demeanor was unhuman-like.

19:29

His muscles bulged,

19:31

sweat drenched his face and his body glistened

19:34

from extortion, creating a stark

19:37

juxtaposition with Sebastian's

19:39

small frame. Earlier

19:41

that same day, Colinowska launched an

19:43

unprovoked attack on her son, striking

19:46

his head repeatedly with a slipper while using

19:49

her left hand to pin him down. The

19:52

repercussions of these actions were evident

19:55

as Sebastian was seen limping around the house

19:57

in visible discomfort. Three

20:00

days later the abuse persisted

20:02

when Lada Chavsky instructed Sebastian

20:05

to fetch a wooden slot from his bed which

20:08

he then used to strike him across the buttocks.

20:11

The abuse continued and he forced Sebastian

20:13

to perform push-ups. In

20:16

subsequent videos Lada Chavsky whipped

20:18

Sebastian with an extension cable.

20:22

On July 10th CCTV footage depicted

20:24

Sebastian waking up at

20:26

6.36am following a disturbing scene

20:29

where Lada Chavsky grabbed him by the neck,

20:31

repeatedly struck him in the back of the head

20:34

and then kneed him in the buttocks.

20:37

During this assault Kalinowski stood in the doorway,

20:40

wearing a smile while observing the violence.

20:44

Throughout the day Sebastian's agony was evident

20:47

as he limped around the bedroom holding his

20:49

chest. Two days later

20:52

more abuse was documented as Lada

20:54

Chavsky punched Sebastian's stomach, stopped

20:57

his face and kneed him in the buttocks. This

21:00

assault left Sebastian off balance with no

21:02

apparent provocation. Following

21:05

the attack Sebastian resorted to using ice packs

21:08

to suit his injured face. Sebastian's

21:11

15th birthday on July 16th was

21:13

far from celebratory. CCTV

21:16

footage captured Lada Chavsky lunging

21:19

at him causing him to duck his head.

21:22

He then shifted to a seemingly normal

21:24

moment

21:25

when Sebastian was presented with a birthday cake

21:28

and his mother took a photo as

21:30

she smiled with the cake. The

21:33

cycle of abuse only persisted two days

21:35

later. Sebastian

21:37

awoke, got ready and then sat

21:40

at the bottom of his bed reading a book before

21:42

he went to work in the garden on his hands

21:44

and knees. Later that

21:46

day CCTV captured his mother hitting

21:48

him over the head and pointing her finger

21:51

at him. Another

21:53

video clip depicted Sebastian on his final

21:55

day of school enduring an assault

21:57

by Lada Chavsky. Ladachowski

22:00

repeatedly slapped him on the back of his head, forcibly

22:03

grabbed his skilled blazer, and followed

22:06

this with a forceful kick to Sebastian's

22:08

stomach. Subsequently,

22:10

Ladachowski dragged Sebastian towards

22:12

the mirror and delivered a knee strike

22:14

to his buttocks. Throughout

22:17

this assault, Kalinowska was present.

22:20

However, she briefly left to unpack a takeaway

22:22

and commands her meal.

22:25

The motivation behind this particular assault

22:27

stands from Sebastian's deviation from

22:29

the expected routine. He,

22:32

like the other students, had been granted permission

22:34

to leave school early. Instead

22:37

of immediately returning home, Sebastian spent

22:39

some time with his friends. In

22:42

response to this perceived defiance,

22:45

he was subjected to this severe abuse.

22:48

Following this incident, Sebastian was coerced

22:50

into performing press-ups.

22:53

The agony etched on his face and evident

22:56

in his body language, as he repeatedly

22:58

collapsed to the floor, was unmistakable.

23:02

On the 1st of August, footage from inside

23:04

the home showed Sebastian repeatedly being

23:06

punched and kicked by Ladachowski,

23:09

who then kneed him three times in the chest. The

23:12

footage clearly depicts Sebastian doubled

23:14

over in pain, clutching his chest

23:17

as he absorbs the blues. Later,

23:20

Ladachowski forcibly dragged Sebastian

23:23

across the floor by his ankle. Once

23:26

again, he coerced Sebastian into exercises

23:28

and used an extension cable

23:31

to whip him, attempting to motivate

23:33

him through pain. Kalinowska

23:35

also engaged in the abuse, at one

23:38

point grabbing him by his collar and hurtling

23:40

him through the ground. On

23:42

most days, Sebastian would perch on a stool in

23:44

his bedroom, his gaze seemingly

23:47

fixed on a wardrobe or contemplating

23:49

the scene outside of his window. His

23:53

farads outside his room were primarily

23:55

for meals, the completion of chores,

23:57

and the chorist exercise routine. teens

24:00

imposed upon him. During

24:02

the night his fear of arousing the wrath of

24:04

Kalinowska or Latachovsky

24:07

drove Sebastian to urinate in a bottle

24:09

within his bedroom, rather than

24:11

risk disturbing them by using the bathroom

24:14

and thereby inviting further beatings.

24:19

Parallel to this systematic abuse Latachovsky's

24:21

actions were captured on record as

24:24

he prepared syringes. Being

24:27

a user of steroids, he

24:29

and Kalinowska devised a harrowing

24:31

means to inflict additional suffering

24:33

on Sebastian. At

24:35

times they used the empty syringes to

24:38

puncture his skin. The

24:41

CCTV cameras also captured the couple

24:43

force feeding Sebastian. Throughout

24:47

this ordeal Kalinowska and Latachovsky

24:49

exchanged text messages. In

24:52

these messages they dehumanized Sebastian

24:55

using derogatory language and discussing

24:58

the forms of punishment they planned

25:00

to disjoint. They

25:02

sinisterly added something without

25:04

marks before Latachovsky

25:06

suggested cold water

25:09

is waiting for him. In another text

25:11

message Kalinowska wrote, I

25:13

told this clown to clean the whole car.

25:17

While Latachovsky was at work he

25:19

was evidently watching the CCTV

25:21

footage at home as Sebastian was

25:24

forced to do sit-ups. He

25:26

texted Kalinowska, tell

25:29

him I'm going to beat the shit out of him. He's

25:31

supposed to lift his body up evenly.

25:34

Later that day Kalinowska replied, I

25:37

do not torture anymore because

25:39

he's not managing. I turn a blind

25:42

eye. He is supposed to be doing 2000, then

25:45

asked to swap something else. Little

25:48

piece of shit. On

25:52

the 10th of August the violence

25:54

against Sebastian began at

25:57

8.15am and continued until 4.10pm. During

26:00

this agonizing day, Sebastian's suffering

26:03

was evident, with visible wounds

26:05

marring his buttocks. The

26:07

footage graphically captured the relentless

26:09

brutality inflicted upon him. Latajewski's

26:13

assault began with a series of stomach-kicking

26:15

episodes within Sebastian's bedroom.

26:19

The violence escalated, transitioning

26:21

into a horrifying ordeal that stretched

26:24

over

26:24

four grueling Rs.

26:27

In an extended sequence, Sebastian was punched

26:30

and throttled. At one

26:32

stage, he was forced to kneel on the floor and

26:34

bend over his bed. Latajewski

26:37

proceeded to whip his buttocks with an extension

26:40

lead. The aftermath

26:42

of this frenzied assault left Sebastian

26:45

in dire condition. He

26:47

struggled to maintain an upright stance, requiring

26:50

repeated support to remain standing.

26:54

Just alone in his bedroom, his movements were laboured,

26:57

and even the simple act of picking up a cup

26:59

was a painful endeavour. The

27:02

day before Sebastian died, he was subjected

27:05

to even more violence. Latajewski

27:08

was seen on CCTV footage forcing drink

27:10

and food into Sebastian's mouth. He

27:14

then punched him repeatedly in the stomach and

27:16

kicked him in the buttocks multiple times. Latajewski

27:20

wasn't done just yet. He then

27:22

produced a needle and stopped Sebastian

27:25

numerous times in the groin and

27:27

thigh, laughing while doing

27:29

so. At one point,

27:31

Kalinowski emerged in the bedroom, took

27:34

the needle and took her turn in stabbing her

27:36

son again and again. Later

27:39

in the morning, Sebastian was led into his bedroom,

27:42

where Kalinowski held him upright, enabling

27:45

Latajewski to unleash a barrage of

27:47

punches. Latajewski's torment

27:49

culminated with Kalinowski attempting

27:52

to force a slipper into your son's

27:55

mouth. Throughout these traumatic events, Sebastian's

27:57

agony was palpable. His

28:00

attempts to stand, move, and even

28:02

breathe were marked by severe pain

28:05

and difficulty. On the morning

28:07

of Sebastian's murder, the CCTV

28:10

captured him lying on his bed. His

28:13

breath was deep and rapid. At

28:17

8.26am, Latoszewski entered the bedroom,

28:20

grabbed Sebastian and punched him three times

28:23

on the arm. Then

28:25

pulled him up by the shorts and threw him onto the bed

28:27

before escorting him out of the bedroom. In

28:30

the living room, Kalinowski sat eating

28:32

her breakfast. However,

28:35

a short while later, she rose from her seat and

28:37

descended the

28:37

stairs.

28:39

Within moments, the bedroom's surveillance footage

28:41

revealed Latoszewski returning with a

28:44

quilt in hand. With

28:46

deliberate intent, he spread the quilt out on

28:48

the floor. He then disappeared

28:51

before reemerging, and he was carrying

28:53

at the limp and wet body of Sebastian.

28:56

He laid him down on the makeshift surface.

29:00

Kalinowski then entered the bedroom as well,

29:02

her finger pointing accusingly at

29:05

her son. The

29:07

footage captured fragments of Latoszewski

29:09

attempting CPR, although

29:11

by this point, it was a futile

29:13

endeavor. Sebastian's

29:16

life had already slipped away, his tragic

29:19

fate sealed. At 9.24

29:22

a.m., Latoszewski appeared to pour water

29:24

into Sebastian's mouth

29:26

before blowing in it. Their

29:28

actions seemed to indicate an attempt

29:31

to

29:31

obscure the truth. They

29:33

were attempting to force water into Sebastian's

29:35

airways to give the impression

29:38

that he had drowned. Just

29:41

two minutes later, the CCTV system

29:44

was disconnected.

29:46

The CCTV services weren't called until just

29:49

over

29:49

an hour and a half later.

29:52

Before then, Latoszewski sent the WhatsApp

29:54

message to his boss saying he couldn't come into

29:56

work that day, because he had big

29:58

problems.

30:01

The CCTV footage blew the case wide

30:03

open and clearly showed that Sebastian

30:06

had been the victim of prolonged abuse and

30:08

torture before he finally

30:10

succumbed to his injuries.

30:16

30:18

challenging, especially when you're looking for

30:20

somebody who truly understands your needs,

actively listens to you and makes you

30:25

feel at ease. You reach out to friends

30:27

and family for their recommendations and

30:29

after weeks or even months of searching, you

30:32

finally discover one.

30:34

You excitedly call their office and learn

30:36

that they don't accept your insurance. It

30:39

feels like you're right back where you started.

31:29

On the 19th of August, Kalinowska

31:31

and Latuchewski appeared at Leeds Crown

31:33

Court where they were charged with murder,

31:36

manslaughter, neglect, and causing

31:38

or allowing the death of a child.

31:41

They were both remanded in custody ahead

31:43

of a plea and trial preparation that was

31:45

scheduled for September. On

31:48

the 15th of September, they were both ordered to

31:50

stand trial together for the murder of

31:52

Sebastian. As the announcement

31:55

was made, both of them appeared to well up

31:57

and become emotional. They

32:00

both pleaded not guilty to the charges against

32:02

them. The murder trial began on 13

32:04

June 2022. During

32:09

opening statements, prosecutor Jason Pittar

32:11

described the catalogue of injuries that had been

32:13

inflicted on Sebastian. He

32:16

said that the jury would hear evidence from a medical

32:18

expert in child care. He would

32:20

testify that Sebastian's condition would

32:23

have deteriorated over a number

32:25

of days, including a fever. He

32:28

said that Sebastian may have been in a comatose

32:30

state before he died, and questioned

32:32

why paramedics weren't immediately summoned.

32:36

He stated, "... had they done

32:38

so, there was the real possibility that

32:40

Sebastian may have survived. His

32:43

deterioration would not have been missed by his

32:45

carers, and therefore their deliberate

32:48

actions and inactions led

32:50

directly to death. Placing

32:52

to one side the allegation of murder, those

32:54

considerations are highly relevant

32:57

to those kinds of neglect and lack of care

32:59

to Sebastian." He

33:02

mentioned the CCTV footage inside

33:04

the home stating. In a twist,

33:07

it is that system that recorded the abuse

33:09

he had to endure. Prosecutor

33:11

Pittar described a change in Sebastian's

33:13

demeanor, and said that this happened when Kalinowski

33:16

and Lara Czapski began to abuse

33:18

him. They, on the other

33:20

hand, maintained that it wasn't abuse, and

33:23

that they were punishing him for allegedly lying

33:25

and skipping school. He

33:28

stated, "... the punishments,

33:30

if that is an appropriate way to describe them,

33:33

were by any stretch of the imagination cruel,

33:36

and became increasingly more severe and violent

33:39

over time." It was clear that

33:41

these were simply excuses for the harsh

33:43

punishment of Sebastian. He

33:46

had stopped attending school regularly in early 2021,

33:50

just as the abuse began to ramp up.

33:53

The prosecutor said that when he was at school shortly

33:55

after he arrived in the UK, he

33:58

was reluctant to discuss his home.

33:59

life," the prosecutor

34:02

stated. He

34:03

was observed to be quiet and timid, and at

34:06

times he appeared sad. It

34:08

was noted that his mother seemed to show a lack of interest

34:11

in his good progress, and in him

34:13

generally, for that matter, when

34:15

teachers spoke to her about him. During

34:19

the opening statement, prosecutor Pitter displayed

34:21

to the jury the harrowing CCTV videos

34:24

of Sebastian being abused and tortured,

34:26

numerous times by both Kalinowska and

34:29

Lada Chavsky. On the second

34:31

day of the trial, there was an unexpected development

34:34

when Lada Chavsky pleaded guilty to a charge

34:36

of manslaughter. Both

34:38

he and Kalinowska then pleaded guilty to cruelty

34:40

to a person under the age

34:42

of 16.

34:44

The trial would still continue, however, with both

34:47

Lada Chavsky and Kalinowska standing

34:49

trial for the remaining offenses.

34:53

The prosecution then called on an unnamed friend

34:55

of Kalinowska. He said that

34:57

she saw Sebastian and the family on

34:59

New Year's Eve of 2020.

35:02

She said that Sebastian was a very good boy, he

35:04

might be quiet, slightly shy, a little

35:07

bit scared maybe, but more like

35:09

shy. She told the jury

35:11

that Kalinowska was seemingly happy with

35:14

her son this day, but told her

35:16

and her husband that he had been lying

35:18

and skipping school. Kalinowska

35:21

and Lada Chavsky went to see the friend and her family

35:24

again the next day, but this

35:26

time Sebastian wasn't there. Kalinowska

35:29

told her friend that Sebastian was at home and throughout

35:32

the day she appeared to watch him on the CCTV

35:35

footage from her mobile phone. The

35:38

friend told the court that she saw the couple again in

35:40

March. This time, how

35:43

she spoke about Sebastian had changed.

35:46

They both complained that he was lying, cheating,

35:48

skipping school and that he was being punished.

35:52

According to the friend, Lada Chavsky was much

35:54

more dominant than Kalinowska.

35:57

She testified. He

35:58

would reply to questions for her.

36:01

He would tell her what to tell her friends at

36:03

work. The woman's husband

36:05

also testified and said that he overheard

36:07

Ladachovsky saying that Sebastian

36:10

didn't obey his mother. To

36:12

him, he got the impression that when Sebastian

36:15

came to the United Kingdom, Kalinow's

36:18

getting Ladachovsky expected him

36:20

to treat them as his savior. He

36:23

commented, I think

36:25

they simply imagined it would be different, like

36:28

they had a soldier. The

36:30

purpose of their testimony was to show how quickly

36:32

things deteriorated for Sebastian,

36:35

and to show that Kalinowska had monitored the CCTV

36:38

footage at home. When Sebastian

36:40

had first arrived in the UK, he was treated like

36:43

part of the family, invited

36:45

to social gatherings and the likes. Within

36:48

just a couple of months, however, things

36:50

had taken a drastic turn, and

36:52

he was seen as more of a hindrance. The

36:56

jury also heard from the pathologist. He

36:59

said that he had never seen so many abscesses

37:01

in a person before. He said

37:03

that Sebastian's altered breathing patterns,

37:06

shown on the CCTV footage, is

37:08

what one would expect given the extent of

37:11

injury and infection. He

37:13

testified, it may well

37:15

be he's got a chest infection as

37:17

a result of the rib fractures. It

37:20

might be the end of a rib has been driven inwards

37:22

and damaged a lung. This has allowed

37:25

the infection to take hold. He

37:27

testified about the other injuries Sebastian

37:29

had sustained, including deep

37:31

bruising, which had come from blunt force,

37:34

either by an object impacting against Sebastian

37:37

or Sebastian impacting against an object.

37:40

He said these could be explained by heavy punches,

37:43

kicks, or Sebastian being pushed against

37:45

a surface. According

37:48

to the pathologist, Sebastian had suffered injuries,

37:51

usually attributed to victims of road

37:53

traffic collisions. He

37:56

said that there were dying bits of tissue and

37:58

collection of blood. with fragmented

38:01

bits of muscle. He

38:03

further testified that he had also sustained

38:05

defensive type injuries and that there

38:07

was no evidence he had drowned, despite

38:10

Ladichowski's best efforts to

38:12

force water into his lungs before calling

38:14

paramedics. Dr. Mohammad

38:16

Rahman testified next, telling

38:19

the jury that Sebastian would have experienced great

38:21

pain and a number of symptoms, including

38:24

a high temperature, shivers, and

38:27

a change in conscious level as the

38:29

infection progressed. He

38:31

stated, when the injuries were being inflicted

38:34

he would have suffered serious pain because

38:36

breaking ribs and causing significant

38:38

bruises are very very painful.

38:42

Dr. Rahman said that when a child deteriorates

38:44

with infection and without medical intervention

38:47

they reach an end point and

38:49

succumb. He added that it would

38:51

be difficult to provide a precise time as

38:53

to how long the deterioration would take,

38:56

but it would take a few days for the condition

38:58

unchecked to leave to his actual

39:00

death. He told the

39:03

jury, to begin with, when

39:05

the infection started it may not

39:07

have been very apparent, but as it

39:09

sat in and was continuing it

39:11

should have become quite obvious to any adult

39:13

around him that he was getting ill,

39:15

and as the process continued

39:18

it would have been very obvious his condition

39:20

was getting worse. The

39:29

evidence implicating the couple was compelling,

39:31

yet the defense team aimed to assert that

39:33

the murder was not premeditated. When

39:37

they launched their case during the trial they

39:39

summoned Ladichowski to testify. He

39:42

acknowledged that he had taken Sebastian's life,

39:45

expressing that he would never forgive himself.

39:49

He confessed to his cruel and physically aggressive

39:51

behavior towards Sebastian, expressing

39:54

deep embarrassment and regret for his actions.

39:58

Ladichowski contended. that

40:00

he had never intended to cause Sebastian's

40:02

death, and he claimed that he hadn't

40:04

realised the extent of the harm he had inflicted

40:07

during the assaults. When

40:09

asked if he had used his full strength during

40:11

the attacks, he responded, No,

40:14

I swear to God I tried to use

40:16

as little force as possible. I

40:19

messed up, and didn't want to use significant

40:21

force, no. While

40:23

he acknowledged that he possessed the ability to kill

40:25

Sebastian if he had wanted to, he

40:28

asserted, I really didn't want

40:30

that to happen. Latojescu

40:32

further asserted that Sebastian had a knack

40:35

for manipulating him to portray

40:37

him and his mother negatively.

40:40

He described instances where

40:42

Sebastian pretended to cry or faint

40:45

pain to evade tasks. He

40:48

even claimed that one of the punishments was because Sebastian

40:50

had 70 pieces of unfinished

40:53

homework throughout the year. However,

40:56

Sebastian hadn't been in school long enough

40:58

to have that amount of unfinished homework,

41:01

and his teachers all said that his homework was

41:03

always complete. It

41:06

was abundantly clear that Latojescu was

41:08

trying to find an excuse for the abuse

41:10

he inflicted on Sebastian. He

41:13

explained, there were instances

41:15

where he was pretending in order not

41:17

to do things. I became lost

41:20

with it all, and I really don't know

41:22

if he was telling truth or lies. But

41:24

for the whole time he kept saying he felt

41:26

well. Drawing from his own experiences

41:29

of having been assaulted by his parents,

41:32

Latojescu believed that by subjecting

41:34

Sebastian to similar abuse, he

41:36

would learn not to lie. When

41:39

Kalinowska's defense attorney, Mary

41:41

Spinwin, insinuated that Latojescu

41:44

was abusive towards both her and Sebastian,

41:47

he reacted with distress. He

41:50

responded, it's upsetting

41:52

me to hear you say that, and please

41:55

don't try to portray me as some sort of monster.

41:58

Up until now I was a really good

41:59

person.

42:01

The defense teams attempt to portray Kalinowski

42:03

as a battered woman, contradicted

42:05

the clear evidence from the CCTV

42:08

footage that showed her also abusing

42:10

her son. While she

42:12

could have indeed been the victim of abuse herself,

42:15

she then subjected her own son to abuse.

42:18

In response to the suggestion that Kalinowski

42:21

had missed work due to black eyes

42:23

in 2018, Ladachowski

42:26

refuted this claim. He

42:28

emphasized that this never happened, telling

42:31

the courtroom. She was seeing a lot of doctors

42:33

at the time, and there was not something she

42:35

reported to police. And

42:37

it breaks my heart to hear you say that, because

42:39

for the past 11 years I tried to be

42:41

really good to her. When text

42:44

messages were presented in which Ladachowski

42:46

threatened to knock her teeth out,

42:49

he explained that it was a joke, and

42:52

then highlighted his efforts to care for Kalinowski.

42:56

He described himself as attentive, massaging

42:58

her feet nightly, chauffeuring her,

43:01

and assisting her in debt repayment. He

43:04

denied that the CCTV cameras were installed

43:06

to monitor not just Sebastian, but

43:09

also Kalinowski. According

43:11

to Ladachowski, it was Kalinowski's idea

43:13

to discipline Sebastian, who he

43:16

characterized as a challenging

43:18

child who had faced considerable

43:20

adversity. As

43:22

Ladachowski provided his testimony,

43:25

he tightly clutched a crucifix and

43:27

wept. After he

43:29

stood down from the witness stand, it

43:32

was Kalinowski's turn to testify.

43:35

She sobbed as she told the courtroom that she

43:37

should have died instead of Sebastian.

43:40

As expected, she said that she was in a controlling

43:42

relationship with Ladachowski,

43:44

and

43:45

that she was patrified and scared

43:47

of him. She admitted

43:49

that she had been cruel to Sebastian, but

43:51

had pleaded not guilty because she hadn't caused any

43:54

of the rib injuries that ultimately

43:56

killed him. She

43:58

was asked by her barrister, Leonard Smith, why

44:00

she was cruel to Sebastian, and she

44:02

replied because she had listened to Ladaczewski.

44:06

She commented, He was

44:08

just an ordinary teenager, I feel,

44:11

as a mother. She then contradicted

44:13

what Ladaczewski had said, and said that

44:15

it was his idea to punish Sebastian.

44:18

She told the courtroom,

44:20

he was the head of the house, and he was deciding

44:22

everything. In several

44:25

videos Kalinowska could be seen kicking Sebastian

44:28

and using her weight on him while Ladaczewski

44:30

beat him. Once more, she

44:32

said she only did this because Ladaczewski

44:34

forced

44:35

her to.

44:37

When asked about the derogatory name she called

44:39

Sebastian over text message,

44:41

she replied that she had done so because I was

44:44

used to those words, because those

44:46

were the words he used to address me. While

44:49

Kalinowska was claiming to be afraid of Ladaczewski,

44:53

it was revealed that after they were arrested, they

44:55

had conversed via letters from behind

44:58

bars.

44:59

In one letter,

45:01

Kalinowska had told him that she would marry

45:03

him anywhere, anytime,

45:06

even in a tracksuit.

45:09

She also told him, I will wait

45:11

as many years as it takes,

45:13

and remember,

45:14

you're mine darling. In

45:17

another letter she had written, despite

45:19

everything, you have me and I will

45:21

not leave and I will not stop loving you. Too

45:24

many beautiful moments we had together.

45:28

According to Kalinowska, she was broken

45:30

at the time. It

45:32

was also revealed that during the trial Kalinowska

45:35

had whispered to Ladaczewski

45:37

that she needed to blame him because she had no

45:39

way out. Kalinowska

45:42

continued in her testimony, telling

45:44

the courtroom, my heart is broken now,

45:47

and when I think about Sebastian, it makes me cry,

45:50

every single day, every single evening.

45:52

I do love him. He was

45:55

a good boy. She then

45:57

proceeded to tell the jury that at the time of Sebastian,

46:00

staff, she was looking for accommodation

46:02

to escape Ladachovsky. She

46:05

claimed that she was looking on Gumtree and Facebook,

46:07

but said that it was too expensive. Following

46:10

her testimony, the defense rasted, and it

46:12

was now time for the jury to reach a determination.

46:16

Before they were sent off to deliberate, prosecutor

46:19

Jason Pitter told the jury that they

46:21

could be sure that both Ladachovsky

46:23

and Kalinowska were guilty of murder.

46:26

He stated, Not

46:28

long after 8.30am on Friday

46:31

13th of August last year, Sebastian's

46:34

body simply gave up on him. He

46:36

relented to the months and months of torture.

46:38

It may be now, whether

46:41

the defendant's accepted or not, that

46:43

you can safely conclude that there in reality

46:46

is no other word suited to Sebastian

46:48

than that of torture. You may also

46:50

conclude that in effect, that

46:53

is what happened to him. He was tortured

46:55

to death. Ladachovsky's

46:57

defense attorney presented the differences

46:59

between murder and manslaughter, while Kalinowska's

47:02

defense team painted Ladachovsky as an

47:04

abuser. Ultimately,

47:07

both Kalinowska and Ladachovsky were

47:09

found guilty of Sebastian's murder,

47:12

with the jury rejecting manslaughter charges

47:14

after just three hours of deliberation.

47:18

As the verdict was announced, Kalinowska began

47:20

to sob before crying unconditionally

47:22

as she was led

47:23

from the courtroom. Ladachovsky,

47:25

on the other hand, showed

47:28

no emotion as he stared down at the floor.

47:31

Kalinowska and Ladachovsky returned to court

47:33

on 3rd November for their sentencing.

47:38

Sebastian's father had prepared a victim

47:40

impact statement that was read aloud.

47:43

He said, You are a truly

47:46

cruel tyrant. How can you

47:48

be such ruthless monsters? Sebastian

47:51

wished to make you love him. You reciprocated

47:54

his love with pain. You are going

47:56

to have to pay for every one of his peers.

47:58

I will never never comprehend

48:00

how much hatred it takes to do such a thing.

48:03

The question is why. Why did you hate

48:06

him to such a degree? That

48:08

you let that psychopath treat him like

48:10

that. How could you let your child

48:12

be harmed? You took everything

48:15

from him,

48:16

his dignity, the wife."

48:19

He said that he had made many mistakes as a parent,

48:22

and perhaps hadn't been the perfect father.

48:25

He said that despite this, he loved his

48:27

son, but failed to protect him from

48:30

his own mother. Sebastian's

48:33

father had cared for him after Kalinowski

48:36

left him when he was just three years

48:37

old. He

48:40

said that after that,

48:41

she never wanted to care for him and never

48:43

asked any questions about him. She

48:46

didn't know what his childhood dreams were or how

48:49

he was getting on living in Poland. He

48:52

said that the only single memory she would have of

48:54

her son is how she and Lataczewski

48:57

had tortured him and ultimately killed

49:00

him. He then addressed

49:02

Lataczewski and said his own

49:04

son would have to live with the fact

49:07

his father was a murderer. He

49:09

then added, "'I hope justice

49:11

pays you. We are not going to forgive

49:14

ourselves. We let Sebastian

49:16

live with you. We are to blame

49:18

the family,

49:20

the court that allowed your parental rights to be reinstated.

49:23

We failed him.'" Before

49:26

Judge Lombard sentenced the couple,

49:29

she referred to Lataczewski as

49:31

a bully.

49:31

Like all bullies, doubtless

49:34

unable to obtain respect in any other

49:36

way, you sought to intimidate

49:38

and frighten Sebastian, who was

49:40

weaker than you. And

49:42

in Sebastian, you found an easy prey.

49:46

You have no self-control.

49:49

The CCTV footage shows you

49:51

often flying into

49:52

a rage, pacing the room with

49:54

a grimace on your face as you scream

49:57

at Sebastian. There

50:00

are times when viewing the footage that

50:02

it seemed to me that you had lost awareness

50:05

that you were actually hitting a human being,

50:08

and not your punch bag. Between

50:11

punches you would pause to admire

50:13

your physique and the contour of

50:16

your muscles in the full-length mirror in

50:18

the living room."

50:19

Shouted that Kalinowska simply didn't care about

50:22

her son and was only interested in

50:24

herself. She mentioned

50:26

the letters that she had sent to Lataczewski,

50:29

telling her, In that letter, which

50:32

is lengthy, you write about yourself.

50:36

You write about your relationship with Lataczewski

50:39

and your continued love for him, telling

50:41

him that you would happily marry him, even

50:44

wearing a prison uniform.

50:47

Your only real worry was

50:50

what had happened to your cat after

50:52

your arrest, and where your

50:54

cat had been taken.

50:57

In this very long letter, there was

50:59

not one word about your

51:01

son Sebastian, about

51:04

his death and the loss of that

51:06

life.

51:07

The judge then sent in Spose Kalinowska

51:10

and Lataczewski to life in prison with

51:12

a minimum term of 39 years.

51:16

A side of court Detective Chief Inspector

51:18

Tony Nicholson commented, Sebastian

51:21

was a child who could not have been more isolated

51:24

and appears to have suffered the most appalling

51:26

abuse in silence and even come

51:29

to see it as normal. Lataczewski

51:31

and Kalinowska abused this boy in a manner

51:34

which was wicked and evil, and we

51:36

may never know why they chose to act in

51:39

this inhuman way. We recovered

51:41

overwhelming evidence of their attacks and

51:43

of them discussing them in phone messages.

51:46

I can say the footage we have seen of this

51:48

abuse has upset experienced

51:51

detectives. The injuries

51:53

inflicted on Sebastian were carried out

51:55

in a way where they would not be visible,

51:58

and it is clear both parties acting in a

52:00

way to hide evidence of

52:02

their assaults on him. They

52:05

both now will have many years in prison

52:07

to reflect on why they chose to

52:09

inflict such pain, suffering

52:12

and eventually death on an innocent

52:14

boy. Leaving

52:17

his father behind in Poland, Sebastian

52:20

Kalinowski had embarked on a new chapter

52:22

in the United Kingdom alongside

52:24

his mother and stepfather, fueled

52:27

by aspirations for a brighter future.

52:29

However, the haven he should

52:31

have discovered within his family's embrace

52:34

transformed into a nightmare of relentless

52:36

abuse and torment. The

52:39

language barrier rendered Sebastian voiceless,

52:42

leaving him isolated from health. Tragically,

52:45

the United Kingdom meant

52:48

to be his sanctuary,

52:50

instead became the stage for the tragic conclusion

52:53

of Sebastian's

52:53

young life.
